Zechariah:10
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Ask from the Lord rain at the time of the latter rain ,
the Lord who maketh lightning
clouds :
and he will give unto them showers of rain ,
to every herb in the field .
*
For the Theraphim speak vanity ,
and the diviners foresee a lie ,
and those that have dreams speak what is false ,
with nought do they comfort :
therefore do they move about like a flock ,
they bleat ,
because no shepherd .
*
Against the shepherds is my anger kindled ,
and on the he
goats will I inflict punishment ;
for the Lord of hosts thinketh of his flock ,
the house of Judah ,
and maketh them as his elegant horse in the battle .
*
Out of him cometh forth the corner ,
out of him the tent
nail ,
out of him the battle
bow ,
out of him every ruler together .
*
And they shall be like mighty men ,
treading down in the mire of the streets in the battle ,
and they shall fight ,
because the Lord is with them :
and the riders on horses shall be made ashamed .
*
And I will strengthen the house of Judah ,
and the house of Joseph will I save ,
and I will bring them again to their own homes ;
for I have mercy upon them ,
and they shall be as though I had never cast them off ;
for I am the Lord their God ,
and I will answer their prayer .
*
And they of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man ,
and their heart shall rejoice as though from wine :
and their children shall see it ,
and be rejoiced ;
their heart shall be glad in the Lord .
*
I will call for them ,
and gather them ;
for I have redeemed them :
and they shall increase as they have increased .
*
And when I shall have scattered them among the people ,
they will remember me in the far
off countries :
therefore shall they live with their children ,
and return again .
*
And I will bring them back again out of the land of Egypt ,
and out of Assyria will I gather them ;
and into the land of Gil
ad and Lebanon will I bring them ,
and it shall not be sufficient for them .
*
And he will pass through the sea distress ,
and he will smite in the sea the waves ,
and there shall dry up all the deeps of the stream :
and there shall be brought down the pride of Assyria ,
and the sceptre of Egypt shall depart away .
*
And I will strengthen them in the Lord ,
and in his name shall they ever walk ,
saith the Lord .
